I think so, my only concern is the C2D instead of i, but it's what I have now (going from iMac to MBP), so I think it'll be ok. Plus, getting a less expensive one I can afford to replace the HD with an SSD/HD combo, which is probably more important for what I actually use it for.

It's not in perfect condition (or the model I thought) but I bought it anyway. I just got home though and realized that the display is crooked about 1mm, so it rubs the body when opening. There's also some scratches but it's all really minor.

It's also a 2008, though I'm not entirely sure what model, besides A1286. It has a 2.66 C2D, but it also has a removable battery.

They don't, it saves me the worry of doing it myself. Plus I'll probably just be putting stickers on the case.

On the plus side, upon popping off what I thought was the battery on the bottom I found it was the battery cover, which holds a smaller battery and an... EASY TO REACH HARD DRIVE! GLORY OF GLORY! CAN IT BE? This means I can order an SSD whenever, since it's a 5-minute install.
